Which subject do you think people are most interested in? a) money, b) movie stars c) themselves. If you answered c, give yourself five points and move on to an interesting Web business opportunity: on-line self-surveys.

People love to learn about themselves by taking those little self-surveys found in magazines. Here are some possible survey topics:

- Marital happiness - Romantic relationships - Likely success in business - Likely success in career - Healthy lifestyle

There are many more possible topic areas like creativity, child rearing, and negotiating.

Your Web site provides these surveys and results of surveys on-line for free. You make money with back-end products. Here are some possible back-end products:

- Self-help books or ebooks - Training materials - Topic related newsletters - More in-depth self analysis - Personal coaching

After taking a survey, many people will learn that they could use a little improvement in that area, resulting in purchase of these back-end products. The interesting thing is that people who receive positive results will also purchase some of these back-end products. People love to learn that they are good at something and this motivates them to further develop that area.

Part I. Outlook OF World

Storytelling, mothers, more of good stuff, I wish it would never have to end. Mysterious tales sweeping through our attention, leaving traces of wonder. Grasping it would defeat purpose. Their touch changing us, yet ever so slightly, we return to dullness.

Grove-thinking, worrisome tasks, busy, routine-filled hours, no escape from rumors of doom. All good seems to vanish, where are golden days? What must have happened to innocence? Are there rewards for plain people like us?

Where can one turn with questions on hope and betterment? Is there an answer to why’s of children? Do we pretend, or must it be done just ‘because’? If signs pointed somewhere, guide could appear, need we just look? None of worn-out clues have any meaning. Many have tried fixing before us.

Nowhere so far has it stopped going. Much singing and acting captures all wild things, their edges no longer rough. Evenings not calming, still more in morning. Take it for reasons of sweeter to come. Future? What may it be holding?

Dusk fills horizons of bitter forgetting. Wind elevates trash from seams of town. Dogs passing aimlessly, missing true voices they have known. A siren stops darkness, while food trucks deliver. Doors shut for arousal with ‘tube’ entertainment. Smells escape from hi-tech utensils, steamy, another glow and concern. What must that prize be that we were promised?
